John Key

In November 2016 the US Secretary of State John Kerry sneaked into New Zealand to meet prime minister John Key and Trade minister Murray McCully. We were surprised at the timing because it was election day in the US.

We now know what the meeting was for. It involved Israel … and the TWO State Solution. They met on the 13th November to discuss “particularly matters currently before the United Nations Security Council, including the Syria crisis.”

And what was currently before the United Nations Security Council? Israel.

The Two State Solution

Here’s what led to the meeting. There have been seven decades of failed peace talks between the ‘Palestinians’ and Israel. US Secretary of State John Kerry led the most recent attempt at brokering a final peace agreement. Those talks broke down in 2014, and then NZ successfully bid for a seat on the UN Security Council.

In 2015 the NZ government immediately started to pressure Israel to restart Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations, by using its position on the UN Security Council. It led to Israel sending a blunt message to the NZ government not to try to restart the peace talks.

The day of the meeting on 13th November had barely ended, when at two minutes after midnight on the 14th November 2016 NZ was struck by the massive 7.8 earthquakes. This time there was damage in Wellington, and Kaikoura was devastated.

The Number Two sign

The number two figured prominently in this earthquake. Two huge earthquakes happened simultaneously, involving two different plates, at two minutes after midnight, that lasted two minutes, with two people dead, affecting two islands (the North and South Island), and to top if off the land underwent a two-metre shift south of Marlborough.
I have covered this more on my other blog: The trap in the ground, and the trumpet in the sky.

After the earthquake, NZ put forward a motion in the UN Security Council on the 23rd of December 2016. (You’d think we’d have better things to worry about.) It criticized Israel’s settlement in East Jerusalem, commonly referred to as the West Bank. That meeting led to the Paris peace conference three weeks later on the 15th January 2017, a shameful Two State Solution hammered out in Paris without agreement from Israel.

“Do two walk together unless they have agreed to do so?” Amos 3:3

This cartoon shows what I think of complicit little NZ’s actions. I hope Israel and God will forgive this foolishness.

Did you know the term “peace and security” was given as a sign before the Lord’s sudden return? “Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.1 Thessalonians 5

New Zealand’s Prime Minister John Key has resigned. I’m surprised at the timing – just after the Kaikoura earthquakes, and on the same day that Italy’s prime minister resigned.

It reminds me of that scene in Jurassic Park where the kids got left with T-Rex. But let’s hold that uneasy thought for the time being.

Key should have resigned like he promised when it was proven that the GCSB is carrying out mass surveillance of us New Zealanders. But when the Snowden revelations did indeed show that in 2015, nothing happened. At least he would have had some credibility if he’d kept his word.

His comments were flip and his neo-liberal financial leadership was a flop.

So what has John Key done in the three terms he’s been in?

He raised GST to 15%, turned NZ into a tax haven for the one percent, sold NZ land to overseas investors thereby pricing our children out of the domestic housing market, signed NZ up to the TPP, sold state houses – which forced vulnerable NZ families into living in cars, and under his watch New Zealand’s gross debt has soared to a whopping half trillion dollars.

That’s what we know he’s done. So what’s happening behind the scenes that we don’t know about?

Does the average Kiwi know the country’s balance sheet now has a derivatives exposure of $180b, she asks? That is rather a lot of those “financial weapons of mass destruction”.

It means the NZ tax-payer is on the hook if it all goes wrong and there is the international equivalent of a bank-imposed mortgagee sale. (Think Greece, Iceland and Ireland.)

But hey, what could go wrong? It’s like 2008 never happened!

John Key was directly involved in the development of derivatives – the financial contracts and credit default swaps that no-one understands, which led to the toxic sub-prime housing loans, which led to the Global Financial Crisis. The likes of Merrill Lynch and the Bankers Trust profited from foreign exchange trades and derivatives speculation at the expense of national economies.

In transforming NZ into a tax haven and creating the speculative housing bubble, he’s done the same thing to NZ that he did to Ireland, when as head of global foreign exchange for investment giant Merrill Lynch he shifted a considerable amount of his business to Ireland in the mid-1990s to take advantage of a 10% tax rate for foreign investors.

At midnight on the day globalists John Kerry (US Secretary of State) and John Key (prime minister of NZ) met in Wellington, NZ suffered another huge earthquake. It did damage to the top part of the South Island and the capital, Wellington.

This quake was different because it was actually two huge earthquakes that happened simultaneously. Two earthquakes, that lasted two minutes, with two people dead, affecting two islands (the North and South Island) – and the land has undergone a two-metre shift south of Marlborough …with aftershocks felt in Seddon.

(The fact that Seddon is affected again is significant. I’ve explained in a previous post that the prominent statue of Richard Seddon outside NZ’s Parliament Buildings has come to represent the authority of the government in NZ. Is the nation being shaken because the government is again doing something out of its mandated authority?)

And all this has happened during a super-moon and before a huge storm. There were also strange lights, seen flashing across the sky in Wellington while the earth shook. These lights are an extremely rare occurrence, happening in only 0.5% of earthquakes.

What was the reason for Kerry and Key’s meeting? Ostensibly Kerry had stopped into NZ on his way back from a trip to observe “climate change” in Antarctica – even though NASA found that it is not possible to say whether it is warming or cooling overall, and the ice sheets aren’t melting.

The real reason he was in NZ was probably to plan a way to get the TPPA finalised before Trump quite rightly puts a kibosh on the deal.

Kerry and Key are not New Zealand’s friends. They are a threat to New Zealand’s sovereignty.

The TPPA has been negotiated in secret, aided by a compliant media. New Zealanders are not privy to this deal. It’s frightening.

Free trade agreements are not about jobs; they are about strengthening corporate power and maximising dividend returns to shareholders. Under the TPPA, corporations will be able to sue our government with lawsuits conducted in secret, foreign tribunals.

APEC is another globalist trade bloc designed to benefit the oligarchs. This quake has forced John Key to delay his trip to APEC in Peru until later in the week.

Bollard, former governor of New Zealand’s central bank said “Many of the 21 APEC economies are seeing a rise in anti-globalization sentiment, and a key topic for the leaders in Peru will be on what this means for global trade.

Bollard believes the backlash against formal trade deals may lead members to conclude that APEC — which is non-legally binding, consensus-driven and takes incremental steps — is more crucial, as it works on a range of areas like food security and reducing inequality.” Source: Leaders of TPP nations to review options with US President Obama

I shudder to think what “food security” and “equality” are going to look like.

Again I ask, is the earthquake a sign that the NZ government acting outside of its mandated authority? The pattern of ‘two’s associated with this quake appear to be a sign, but God knows what it means. I’m just thankful there wasn’t more loss of life.

It is significant this earthquake happened on the same day in history that New Zealand’s first governor, Governor George Grey arrived – on the 14 November 1845.

Coincidence?

Parliamentary Service has also released CCTV footage from the Speaker’s corridor, showing portraits of previous Prime Ministers swaying and banging against the walls.

In politics, a red flag is a symbol of socialism, communism, and left-wing politics; it has been associated with left-wing politics since the French Revolution (1789–99). (source: Wikipedia) A red flag is also a warning symbol.

Which brings me to our national flag. This year, we the people of NZ were subjected to a fruitless, polarising debate about changing our flag – and no-one knows why. There had been no mandate from us to do so. It was called Prime minister John Key’s ‘vanity project’ and cost NZ $26 million dollars.

A two-stage binding referendum on the flag change was held in 2015 and 2016. In 2015 we were asked to pick the design of the new flag. Shouldn’t the first question have been whether we even wanted it changed? NZ chose to retain the current flag in the second 2016 referendum. So the issue is done and dusted.

BUT here’s the red flag … it turns out the communist government of China was behind the flag change.

On February 18 2016 Prime Minister John Key had a secret lunch with a select, small group of communist Chinese leaders who wanted the Union Jack on our flag gone – because of the Boxer rebellion – a war they had with Britain which happened between 1899-1901! China needed to be told it happened over a century ago, didn’t involve NZ, and to get over themselves. Any New Zealander not of Chinese extraction will say “we don’t care.”

What I do care about is why communist China was allowed to interfere with New Zealand’s domestic affairs – and why this meeting was not picked up by the media. Not many New Zealander’s know about this.

Here’s a story of greed and hypocrisy.This is what happens when a country elects a banker as prime minister.

New Zealand is one of the highest taxed nations when it comes to income tax, and we also pay 15% GST on everything we buy. Even children have to pay tax after the government cut children’s tax credits in 2012.

There’s no privacy protection for us when it comes to the government or IRD.

Also, under the US FACTA law (Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act), any NZ citizen unlucky enough to be born in the US will be reported on by the NZ government to the IRS if they try to open a bank account, or file a company return.

So that’s what happens to individuals.

But if foreign investors park their money here, no questions are asked and no tax is paid.

Our prime minister John Key got the law changed for this in 2011 when he wanted to turn NZ into a “financial hub” – like Ireland. When he was head of Merrill Lynch’s derivatives and global foreign exchange business in London, he shifted a lot of the bank’s business to Dublin.

The result was Ireland’s financial crisis, where the clever use of tax-haven rules and a huge credit boom permitted real estate prices and construction to grow quickly before declining ever more rapidly.

Even though John Key was fully cognisant of Ireland’s collapsed banking system and financial hub collapse, he was cock-a-hoop about doing the same thing to New Zealand.

Glib, smooth and dismissive, in December 2010 Key rubbished objections to his plans and directly specified a 0% tax rate, telling the Minister of Economic Development Gerry Brownlee to deliver him a paper that had zero rating of funds.

In February 2011 Gerry Brownlee (Minister for Economic Development) delivered what he wanted, and in May 2011 the international financial “advisors” started drooling.

The law change in September 2011 to 0% tax for foreign investors made NZ a tax haven.

When a 60 minutes report came out in 2012 about wealthy foreigners dodging tax, Peter Dunne (government lapdog minister) and John Key described it as “legitimate tax avoidance.” Under the law John Key said that tax evasion is illegal, but tax avoidance is not.

When Key was asked if it was right that trustees did not have to tell the IRD who was behind the trust, what assets it had, its income, its beneficiaries, the residence of its settlor nor the nature of its assets, Key deflected reporters by saying they should “ask the IRD.” Even though he was the one who demanded the tax shelter for foreign investors in 2011.

Iceland’s prime minister resigned last week after being the first major casualty of the Panama Papers leaks which revealed how the super-rich manage their money.

Will there be calls for John Key to resign if we find his hand in the cookie jar? Unlikely. He previously promised to resign if it was proven that the GCSB carries out mass surveillance of New Zealanders. When the Snowden revelations did indeed show that in 2015, nothing happened.

Quote: “Whilst the PM has been shaking hands with devious financial operators around the world and promoting our tax system, and doing little to ensure its integrity, we are now known as one of the world’s ‘quiet tax havens’ as the leaked documents reveal.”

He said Key and his colleagues were doing nothing for NZ’s international reputation, with more than 12,000 trusts set up here that pay no tax on their overseas’ earnings.

Obama likes his golf – it’s unbelievable but he even went golfing after Isis beheaded James Foley and the 21 Egyptian Christians. Do you know how many times Obama has played golf since becoming president? I came across this funny golf counter showing the number of games he played since his first day in office: http://obamagolfcounter.com/

They missed the 3rd Jan 2014 when Obama golfed with our Prime Minister; John Key, the PM Banker in charge of of NZ. Apparently NZ is one of the USA’s closest friends.

John Key, Prime Minister of NZ, golfing with Obama

That’s him here, with Obama >>>

John Key was a former banker who worked at Merrill Lynch and the Federal Reserve Foreign Exchange division.

He was involved in the development of derivatives – the financial contracts and credit default swaps that no-one understands, which led to the toxic sub prime housing loans, which led to the Global Financial Crisis … sigh.

These guys are into classical and economic liberalism – which is supportive of free trade, globalisation, free immigration and cultural liberalism (such as supporting legal recognition for same-sex marriage). They do not have the best interests of their nations at heart.

No wonder we’re losing so much freedom in NZ, what with all the spying, the TPPA, FACTA, and Biometrics collecting (RealMe).

So what do you think of the performance of our respective leaders in guiding our countries?

A father took his three children aged nine, seven and five to visit their mother in hospital. He didn’t have to be there as he and the mother were no longer together. That act of caring brought him an assault charge.

His name is Michael Laws, former Wanganui Mayor. His crime? He smacked one of his children in front of a nurse, who then complained to the police.
“Laws accused over child assault” blares the shrill headline from NZ Yahoo news.

Now this father stands accused, and the police are having to investigate a child assault complaint, when their time could be better spent elsewhere. There are heaps of burglaries to investigate from NZ’s P epidemic.

I have been in that same hospital with my child, where I allowed them to jab her with a needle – and it made her cry. What I did was preventative act of caring, necessary for me to do as a parent. How come jabbing my daughter with a needle so she wouldn’t catch whooping cough or diptheria is not termed an assault, when giving a quick smack to a child has stepped over the line is!

It’s sad that NZ has been turned into a small-minded nanny state where parents are under threat. This man was a well known person in Wanganui and a good father. Where was the nurse’s common sense? He’s a Dad left bringing up his children on his own in a land of missing fathers and he didn’t deserve this nonsense. He was visiting his estranged partner and didn’t even have to be there. His actions were those of a caring parent, not a bad one!

Why did Yahoo news make that nefarious accusation into a headline? You have to get to the second paragraph before you realise what he is guilty of – a smack! What kind of Orwellian newspeak are they peddling? I don’t want my opinion shaped, or have to read to paragraph two to get at the truth.

NZ, first country to enact a ban (on smacking) following the publication of the UN Study on “violence against children”

How did we come to this in NZ? This putrid piece of PC excrement, disguised as a law, was passed in 2007 to criminalise parents who smack. It came in under the government of Helen Clark, after a UN publication on violence against children. Helen Clark has been amply rewarded – she is now 3rd in power at the UN.

It was brought in despite public petitions and protests, and without a referendum. It was finally put to public referendum under John Key’s government in 2009, where it was asked “Should a smack as part of good parental correction be a criminal offence in New Zealand?” A whopping 87.4% of NZ answered ‘no’. Nothing happened. Why not, and why haven’t we been listened to?
